Welp...done and done. Followed your steps. Bing resurfaced. Went to set new tab, and selected blank page. The new tab showed Bing. On that new page, Customize did not show. Oh well.

Yup. I used Edge as well. Set homepage to Yahoo. Ahhhh Default for new tab is what I might need to set as well. Gonna see if that does the trick.

I use Chrome as default and Firefox for creating/downloading my videos. (such as ) Still try to steer clear of using the taskbar to search for stuff, but every once in a while, I slip and use it....then cuss internally.

Well two days past the Reset, and 98% finished reinstalling everything, Very pleased with results. Everything is going great. EXCEPT File explorer is extremely slow. And When using it to view a folder, and trying to view a photo, I select Open With and everything freezes. GROAN

Nope. Didn't work. Bing resurfaces every time.

I am the only person using my PC in my study. My wife & kid (and cats) never use it. They have their own tools/toys. Instead of continually being prompted for admin permission to perform tasks or run various programs, is it possible to get Windows 10 to boot up already in Admin mode?

Fixed. I used Windows RESET. Have to reinstall a lot of programs but I learned a hard lesson. Not gonna screw with tweaks any time soon.

Seems easy. Does not work. I reset Google to my default search engine in Edge Restart pc Search from taskbar and it goes straight to Bing as search engine What the heck

When clicking on file explorer shortcut, says no associated application Starting it from the search bar, where the large images show up (File Explorer, Google Chrome, etc), nothing happens. Reinstall without restsrt? I have no install cd. Came with the PC. I made a backup install on USB. Not...

Well..................So is there a way to recover File Explorer outside of repair install of Win 10?

I did however search for rootkits and none of my software found any

Tried. When restarting it asked for a password that I never wrote down/forgot/lost At my age I'm fortunate to remember what I did ten minutes ago Oh well. Screwed again.

Will try.

In task manager, I tried to run new task explorer.exe Nothing Ran sfc /scannow Nothing Entered a batch file to terminate and run explorer.exe Nothing File explorer options through control panel are viewable/customizable but no matter what is done...

So....now that everything is back up and running smoothly (24 hours and counting) I am wondering why Program Manager reared its head in Win 10. Glitch? Throwback surprise?
